Top-Selling Mid-size SUV's

Midsized SUV sales continue to grow, up over 6.5% from the first five months of 2016

Ford Explorer dominates the sales numbers overall, but GMC Acadia sales are up 50% from sales through May 2016, and the Mazda CX9 showed the largest percentage increase during the same period, up 486%. Both are redesigned for 2017.

The big losers by percentage were Buick Enclave, down 22.4%, Nissan Murano down 13.8%, Kia Sorento down 13.7%, and Honda Pilot was down 12.5%.

Here are your sales leaders through five months in the midsized SUV segment:

Ford Explorer 111,266

Jeep Grand Cherokee 96,203

Toyota Highlander 82,728

Jeep Wrangler 80,083

Subaru Outback 72,234

Ford Edge 57,846

Toyota 4Runner 53,098

GMC Acadia 48,111

Hyundai Santa Fe 47,426

Chevy Traverse 46,178

Honda Pilot 44,946

Kia Sorento 40,505

Nissan Pathfinder 38,889

Dodge Durango 30,432

Nissan Murano 29162

Buick Enclave 16,036

Mazda CX9 10,414

Ford Flex 9565

VW Atlas 1610

Nissan is in there, with both the Pathfinder and the Murano.

If someone blows up a school with a bomb they go after the bomber ... if someone shoots up a school they go after the gun.

A privilege is just a right that has been taken away by government.

Political correctness is cowardice wrapped in a lie.

If the Pathfinder had stayed on same platform just with looks updated it would do very well I think.
My 2012 Pathy Silver edition (last yr of that body style) is an amazing vehicle and with the looks updated would give the 4runner a run for the money.
AND it was available with V8.

"In the end we all just play the roles given us... Sometimes they dont fit so well,... but I guess we make do."

Durango is longer and heavier and has 3 rows of seats, doesn't it? Maybe that has something to do with it. That and the Jeep name.

The D is a bit longer & can be configured with the 3rd row. The GC sits a bit higher. The bummer with the GC is no V8 unless you opt for the 2 highest priced trim levels + 4WD. That puts you into the mid 50's easy, a full $12K more than an R/T Durango !
